Why can't we just allow qualified and intellectually strong individuals to take over the leadership of this country for once.

FERNANDEZISBACK:
I categorise you all as one set of brainwashed folks..
The separation of denominations...
Orthodox blame Catholics and vice versa. They both despise baptists...Methodists and the rest .. teaching a whole different things..

I am not a religious person too, but you see, I prefer the Christians by a mile, at least they won't blow your head off for not believing in their God

FERNANDEZISBACK:
.
You Christians and Religious folks should never be taken serious cos y'all are bunch of confused persons..
One is saying something..their book is saying another..their pastor is saying another..
Keep deceiving gullible ones...
The division is just too much.. should they follow their God..or this clueless pastoress or their so called pastor..
Look how they are dragging their faith like it's some kinda comedy show..

Weldone.....but the division has never led to crisis, can you say that about Shiite and Sunni moslems?

Correction, you do your research and gain better understanding on topics before you arrive at your conclusions or else you end up mis-educating people and sounding ignorant.

This isn't a competition, we're trading facts here.

(1) Tinubu's administration initiated the the land reclamation that saved V.I, not FG.

(2) Obasanjo witheld Lagos State's allocations which led to the tax reforms that enabled Lagos to be self-sufficient. President Yaradua later paid the accumulated allocations witheld by the OBJ administration.

Since you won't bother to read:

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/06/withheld-funds-council-workers-plead-tinubu-7-years-unpaid-salary-allowances/amp/

What was withheld is council funds not Lagos allocation. I even posted the news content favourable to Tinubu so you can get clarity.

When you start doing little researches like this, maybe Tinubu will stop hoodwinking you with lies and half-truths.

womjomfashion:
Please I keep having this same issue whenever I on my laptop, please what the best solution to it

Once I on it, it will keep showing it, until I press enter close to 12-15 times before it boot to normal desktop

Check the hard drive, it is either corrupt or not sitting properly.

ba7man:
Dem suppose slap your mouth for confdently writing this epistle of lies.

You were probably still swimming in your dad's balls or busy sh*tting in your pampers when all these happened so I'll forgive your ignorance.

You must be a child not to know all this.

Ok. For assuming that everyone who doesn't share your view is a kid, I can understand the kind of person you are. Kid or not, please do your research. Any where you see any lie in what I wrote please point it out. Thanks

ba7man:
Honestly, you really need to shut up. You talking too much for such an ignorant person

FG reclaim Ahmadu Bello way?? When the same FG witheld the Lagos state allocation??

If you were around me in reality, I'd hurt you.

A totally ignorant person calling another person ignorant:

1. FG reclaimed Ahmadu Bello way and not Tinubu : google is seconds away, please learn to read before displaying your total ignorance on a faceless forum, even if you were still too young to witness the politics of that Ahmadu Bello issue, you can still read at least.

2. FG never for one day withhold Lagos allocation, it is ignorant people like you that keeps parroting that nonsense. The FG witheld LOCAL GOVERNMENT ALLOCATION, the reason is because Tinubu unilaterally created more local government areas without following constitutional procedures for doing so. It would have been illegal for the federal government to fund those newly created local governments without causing crisis, if the FG has done so, what would stop Kano for instance from creating 100 local government areas and then come to FG to ask for funds? For instance, the former Ikeja Local government was divided into 3, which of the 3 should the FG send the allocation to?

You Tinubu urchins are too ignorant and gullible, you create false narratives and keep parroting them hoping that by doing so, it will somehow turn to fact. It doesn't work that way, now that Tinubu has thrown his hat into the ring, those false narratives will not go unchallenged again.

My advise: learn to validate anything you hear before coming to a faceless forum to amplify your ignorance.

Shetemi12:
There are there and doing fine..! And some are in LASU, getting state bursary as lagosian

Good for you, as for me my children will not go there, as for LASU, thanks to Ambode: there has been a great and wonderful turn around.

I wish you and your children the very best. Thanks

Shetemi12:
First of all, I'm a Lagosian. Born in Lagos. I'm from Ojo, I'm an Awori. My mother is from Epe.

Your questions can be answered by Google so I won't disturb myself with much of your stupid question
If any tout or agbero is having a better life than an educated person, it shows the tout is working! Have you seen them running after bus to make their ends meet, go to oshodi and see how touts are fairing, go to mushin or ketu. You will just come online to say stupid words, if all touts are rich or living a better life, you think every parent won't want a better life for them. Ask the educated ones to come for government empowerment, will they go? But those touts will go.

Tinubu legacy in Lagos state gives accomodations to everyone whether you are a tout or educated one. We are one!

I now see the reason why you said Tinubu's greatest achievement is in education, I can't really fault you. If you believe that an agbero chasing bus from Ketu to Ojota is more hardworking than an average graduate. MC Oluomo, Kunle Poly and others living like king's are also very hardworking; causing mayhem in Lagos every day, our belief system does not correlate at all.

However to put an end to this: since Tinubu's greatest achievement is in education, please send your children to any of the wonderful public schools he built.

Thanks.

Shetemi12:
You don't need to say rubbish with confidence. Someone reading what you wrote in essay will think probably you have the idea but way No, you typied nonsense.

Tinubu major achievement was in Education, you can go to stat to confirm. He employ teachers, made education accessible, paid examination fees for students.

N.B he was not on federal government allocation for 4 years

Because you are projecting your candidate does not mean you have the liberty to insult people except of course you lack good breeding.

Answer these questions, if indeed Tinubu's greatest achievement is in education:

1. How come we have so many out of school children every where in Lagos unleashing mayhem every day in Lagos?

2. How many schools did he build as governor?

3. How come touts and agberos are living way above the standard of an average graduate in the same Lagos

4. The only state University, LASU under Tinubu how did it fare? Out of Tinubu's 8 years, LASU was barely in session for 6, it was strikes upon strikes and even when the school was in session it was riddled with cultism, enter Ambode and everything changed dramatically.

5. You can't come from a village somewhere in a backward south West state and claim to know Lagos better than me oga!

Don't come to a faceless forum and write all the balderdash that comes to your head, just because you want to plant your Iragbiji Lagosian wanna be like yourself on the entire nation.

HajiMT:
Tinubu came to power in 1999 and he gave Lagos a vision and mission which not only him but also his successors have been following religiously.

He came in at a time Lagos was dirty. He cleaned up the state.

He gave redemption to Victoria Island by reclaiming Ahmadu Bello way Victoria Island from recurrent sea surge. He is the architect of Eko Atlantic that many of his critics now go to for photographs.

What you know as Lekki Phase 1 and it’s surroundings where the so called celebrities dwell was built by this great man.

He regenerated a substantial part of Lagos Island from Marina to the other inner streets. All the streets he reconstructed within Lagos Island are still very strong till today.

He turned around the way Lagos was generating its internal revenue and the state became better for it. A leap from around 500 million naira monthly to like 15 billion naira at the time he left. I don’t need to tell you what it is today.

The bus rapid system was his idea and he built the brt corridor almost 100% before Fashola took over to complete and inaugurate the first of its kind initiative.

He built many other durable roads such as:

(1) Mushin Oshodi road
(2) Kudirat Abiola road in Oregon
(3) Lawanson Ojuelegba road
(4) Ikotun Igando road
(5) Isheri Iba road (which was opened for use by Fashola)
(6) Bourdillion Awolowo road
(7) Ozumba Mbadiwe road VI (Fashola also completed this)
( Adeola Odeku street VI

He established Agencies such as KAI, Latsma, Lamar’s etc which other states have now copied

I am not a politician neither a son of the soil but these are things that I witnessed in Lagos. I can go on and on

It was the Federal government that reclaimed Ahmadu Bello way, not Tinubu. While he did some things, Lagos was still filthy when he left. He constructed some roads but he actually did not do a single massive project to deal with the perennial traffic.

In all of this, his greatest weaknesses were:

1. He paid very little attention to Education
2. He encouraged touts and agberos

Till date the two weaknesses have been the bane of Lagos and South West in general.

Like occupy Nigeria like endears. There can't be a mass uprising or revolution in Nigeria! We are just too corrupt.

Tinubu, Orji Uzor Kalu, Malami and co are what? Treasury builders? This Femi always assumes every one is foolish enough to believe his beer fuelled rantings!

Gambling addiction is the greatest killer of dreams after drug addiction

What we need is a national guard responsible for internal security, trained in terrorism / counter terrorism strategy. It should be an elite force with modern equipment.

It is wrong for a nation's army to be always involved in national conflict they are neither trained nor equipped for.

If the Cameroonian army invades Nigeria who will fight them? The same army chasing Boko Haram and bandits?

Osinbajo will only contest if he gets Buhari's support, if he does not he we will simply thank God and go back to his law profession after all he has achieved more than Tinubu in the political space.

But Tinubu can never smell the presidency , he is just trying to play a spoiler role. If you think Tinubu stand a chance in the North, then you are just deceiving yourself. Tinubu is perceived as very greedy and dubious, A Buhari who campaigned on integrity can not and will not campaign for a candidate who is perceived to have sold Lagos to himself and relatives.

His pedigree that is shrouded in a miasma of dubiety will count against him, the Yorubas have already given his real enemies all the information they need to use against him, when the real politicking starts - The north will only need to interpret those information provided by the Yorubas of course to their people in Hausa. Nobody will vote for someone who wants to sell Naijiriya.

You say Tinubu is a moslem, please tell a Hausa person that Tinubu's wife is a pastor and watch him hiss in disgust, a Tinubu whose wife is a pastor is a christian as far as the north is concerned, if he chooses a fellow Moslem, APC will be blackmailed and called an Islamic party, the international community ever careful of ensuring that Nigeria's precarious unity is maintained will indirectly pressure Buhari to discourage such, many Northern politicians will not like it and Buhari himself had told Tinubu in 2015 that he will never support a Muslim - Muslim ticket

The truth is : as powerful as Tinubu is in the Southwest, he has never been able to deliver up to 60% of southwest votes to his party at any time, in the last election PDP got as much as 48% of votes cast in the presidential election, in fact PDP got more votes in the southwest (1.7mn) than in the south east (1.65mn) you see and that was when the critical pentecostal christians were with Tinubu because of Osinbajo.
in 2023 if the pentecostals( and they are very fanatical) feel that their choice candidate was stopped by Tinubu you can guess what will happen.

So if Tinubu is unable to deliver the majority of votes cast in his stronghold how do you think he will be able to win. Look at the antecedents of past Yoruba leaders who took a shot at the presidency - Awolowo: got more than 80% of votes cast in the south west. Abiola did same. Obasanjo was an exception but in his first term he had the northern votes to compensate, in his second term realizing that he may have lost the critical northern vote, he rallied the south west and got more than 80% of the votes. Can Tinubu do this? If he doesn't how will he win? South south wont vote for him, south east wont vote for him middle belt will not vote him and of course the North will not vote massively for a candidate not there own, he will be extremely lucky to get 40% of votes cast there. His money can't buy all the votes ask Goodluck, the people deceiving him in the north simply collected his money and scrammed.

Tinubu at the end of the day will be brought down to earth, all the hype will be deflated, he will lose so bad he will be hurt, the most painful part is that people will say: Even his people did not vote for him.

Oghene1st:
You failed to realise that the most useless region in Nigeria is the South West, and the least useless is South East.

The North is useful in agriculture. They produce majority of the agric products consumed in Nigeria. Food sufficiency is very important in an economy.

The South South is useful with Oil and Gas in high volume which is the major source of income for Nigeria.

But what can you say of the West and East?

You stylishly mentioned sea coast and cocoa to make the West relevant but forgot that the sea port there was constructed by the federation with money earned from the whole of the federation, it is not owned by South West. Cocoa is 90% extinct. How much are we making from the cocoa? How is cocoa relevant to the common man?

Southeast is not that completely useless like the South West. The East has high concentration of gas. Both are source of good revenue for the country.

So the most usesless region in Nigeria is South West.

From an humble South Southerner.

If the south east is useful as you mentioned, every part of Nigeria will be scrambling to compensate them with the presidency as they did for South west and South South but despite all the Biafran noise no body cares, after all apart from killing fellow Igbos what can the south east use to hold Nigeria to Ransome? Nothing! The oil and gas you mentioned belong to the south south while the south west controls commerce and industries! Buhari even said you guys aren't serious about leaving Nigeria, in his words: where are they going? They are just like a dot In a circle! I don't pay any attention to their noise!

In 2023, just to show how Inconsequential the south east is: another president will emerge and he won't come from the south east.

If the south west goes into turmoil the nation's economy will collapse, if the south east goes into turmoil only the Igbos resident there will suffer! Fact!!

Give it your best shot...you won't regret. Bank marketing isn't as difficult as people make it look and sound.

Just be smart..banking is a must in Nigeria people must bring money, also the branch you will be posted have existing customers, if your colleagues are nice they will assist.

I know people who started off as DSEs but are now managers and owners of big businesses.

You will learn a lot, your relationship with people will improve, you will become more confident and you will become very ambitious.

The hard way is the only way!

The government keeps increasing over heads in the face of dwindling revenue. This isn't bad though education is always a good investment.

Pls judge urself who their sons father is

Wow! The father is : The man on the left!

Exc2000:


Tinubu left the senate President race because of Abiola's ambition

He was by far one of the richest senators and most favoured by IBB to clinch the seat.

But Senate President and President can't come from Southwest and he had to sacrifice his ambition to support iyaucha ayu, just as he dropped his ambition for Pastor Osinbajo



.

Haaa, you can lie o ....were you there?

Iwobi has been red carded! The comeback dream has just got a million times harder!

That goal keeper is the problem..conceding that kind of cheap goal at this crucial stage of a major tournament can destabilize any team.

Wash! Scam!!

Awolowo was not a saint, agreed. But was his pedigree as dubious as Tinubu's? Tinubu is the most tainted individual that has ever aspired to rule Nigeria!

The N140mn you shared, did it come from your pocket? Shouldn't EFCC invite this man for interogation? I congratulate Ogun people from voting a lootocrat like you out in time! You would have wrecked the state. Crazy money Easter!

You are perfectly healthy and normal. Do you know that late Michael Jackson as he rich as he was couldn't sleep at all except he took drugs...that he actually died when he over took those drugs?.

Why not create time for personal development during the day? The night is meant for rest..it is a myth that those who sleep well at night are lazy and will be poor.

Good sleep equals good health and health is wealth!

Odin13:
Yoruba will come and insult their fellow tribesman for Tinubu

Yoruba busy abusing Nigerians and still wish Nigerians to vote for their god

Anyways ... is a Yoruba affairs ..

2023 is Nigerian matters .. not Yoruba

North rejected Yoruba
South rejected Yoruba
East careless
Even Yoruba Dey reject Yoruba

And still Yoruba noise Dey loud so carelessly

Please learn to separate Yorubas and Tinubu urchins. Many Yoruba will not be proud of someone whose pedigree is shrouded in a miasma of dubiety like Tinubu and will not vote for him.

Aderewah:
1. Past governance experience: Atiku was governor of Adamawa. Tinubu was governor of lagos. Who achieved more results as governor?

2. Corruption: Atiku is convicted of fraud in the US. He cannot visit America. He will be arrested. Tinubu is often accused of corruption. He was under a PDP federal government for 16 years but he was never convicted for corruption.

3. People Management: As president, its important to be able to choose the right people as ministers etc. What are the track records of tinubu compared to Atiku?


Ps: Remember that Atiku was also instrumental in putting buhari to power.

Atiku never governed Adamawa for a single second, consult your history books.

As for me, the two of them are not needed in our political, they are both old, tainted and clueless.

NothIng but the truth. I will get my PVC to vote against any certificateless opolo eye druggie wanting to become Nigeria's president
